Burns in the ashtray by his bed

and holds it up beside his head

The book he reads is on the floor

he's read it several times before

Sits on the ashtray on the bar

He sits and sifts through several plans

He needs the love another has

To help him if another can.

Lays in the gutter by his side

Now he's one of those little lambs

    Bm                       Am       C
Who strayed too far from the flock to find

That people wear between their teeth

In his mouth between his teeth

The cigarette of a single man
